Deeone Criticizes Veekee James Over Marriage Advice to Singles

Former Big Brother Naija star Aderombi Adewale, popularly known as Deeone, has responded to a viral video featuring Nigerian designer Veekee James giving marriage advice to singles. Veekee, who recently got married, shared her thoughts on relationships, criticizing singles who have been in long-term relationships only to be left heartbroken.

In the video, Veekee expressed frustration with singles who, in her view, have been dating for too long without a commitment. Her advice, however, sparked controversy, particularly due to her tone. Deeone, known for his outspoken nature, took to social media to address the video. He questioned whether Veekee had been married long enough to offer such advice, asking, “When she marry?” implying that her recent marriage doesn’t qualify her to speak authoritatively on the subject.

Deeone further criticized Veekee’s approach, stating that while some of her points were valid, the manner in which she delivered them was condescending. He suggested that Veekee spoke to singles as if they lacked common sense, which he found inappropriate, given her limited experience in marriage.

The video and Deeone’s reaction have garnered mixed responses from the public. Some netizens agreed with Deeone, pointing out that Veekee might need more experience before offering marriage advice. Others, however, defended Veekee, arguing that one doesn’t need to be a long-time spouse to share insights on relationships.

In response to the backlash, several social media users commented on Deeone’s post, with some supporting his view while others felt that Veekee’s advice was still relevant. Comments ranged from those who believed that Veekee should slow down in her judgments to those who thought Deeone was too harsh in his critique.

The exchange between Deeone and Veekee has sparked a broader conversation about who is qualified to give relationship advice and the role experience plays in offering guidance to others.
